Go behind the scenes at Carnival and wear costumes

Go behind the scenes at Carnival and wear costumes

Get ready to discover EVERYTHING about Rio Carnival! We will pick you up at your hotel and then take you to the city of samba where we will enter the barracão (the place where the preparations for the carnival take place). There will be bilingual guides, fluent in English and Spanish, able to tell you in their local language the history of samba while you admire the floats that are being made. You will also try on costumes that have been used in carnivals of the past and you will be able to feel like you belong at carnival. After wearing the costume, it's time to learn how to samba, don't be embarrassed and let go because at this moment a professional dancer who parades every year at the Salgueiro samba school will teach a samba class for everyone! With easy steps you will leave there ready to dance a lot during the Rio carnival! After this epic moment, it's time to cool off by trying one of the most famous drinks in Brazil: the caipirinha! It's a very refreshing mix of cachaça and lemon and common at Carnival! This is a complete experience to immerse yourself in the culture of Rio de Janeiro's carnival.

Who says you should wait until Carnival to see the Samba Schools? Samba Schools begin their preparation for the big Carnival parade several months earlier. The first samba school rehearsals start in July (this depends on each samba school). Every Saturday night we visit the prestigious Salgueiro Samba School (one of the best in Rio de Janeiro) and it will be a pleasure to take you to this unforgettable experience. Depending on your hotel, we will pick you up between 8 and 9 pm. On arrival at the Samba School Rehearsal, a comfortable table will have been reserved for you. This magical evening will begin with an entertaining Brazilian Popular Music Band. Beautiful dancers, (baianas), talented musicians and the flag-bearing couple will introduce you to the fascinating world of Samba and Rio Carnival. The highlight of the evening will be at about 23:30 am with the presentation of the "Bateria" (rhythm section), the heart of the samba school. Sixty percussion instruments played simultaneously in perfect harmony create a wonderful rhythm of unequaled strength and joy. This rhythm is a treasure, a true cultural heritage of inestimable value. At 1:00 am we will take you and your group back to your accommodation. Without a doubt, you will remember this night forever!! The Samba School Rehearsal it’s not just a show, it’s a cultural experience that you can´t miss in your visit to Rio de Janeiro. You will remember this night forever ! We can describe the rehearsal of the samba schools, but there are no words to explain the incredible energy and unique feeling of visiting a samba school.
